In our third episode we sit down with Patricia Batten. Patricia is a pastor, Ranked Adjunct Assistant Professor of Preaching, and the Associate Director of the Haddon W. Robinson Center for Preaching at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. We discuss her sermon prep leading up to the delivery of her sermon “God Takes Sin Seriously” based on 2 Samuel 24. But we also dig a little deeper into the impact Haddon Robinson had on her early in her calling as a pastor, but also at the end of Haddon’s teaching ministry. She shares some great nuggets of wisdom she learned from Haddon.
